Transforming Rows Into Columns
Jul 23, 2005
Hi All,
I'm not sure how best to describe what I'm really looking to do, so
I'll just give you my example and hopefully someone can help.
I have a table that looks similar to this:
Primary Key Field Type Field Value
--------------------------------------
1234 FName Sally
1234 LName Smith
1234 Phone 555-555-5555
7777 FName John
7777 LName Riley
4444 LName Johnson
4444 Phone 222-234-5555
etc...
Which I want to move into a format that looks like this:
Primary Key FName LName Phone
-----------------------------------------
1234 Sally Smith 555-555-5555
7777 John Riley
4444 Johnson 222-234-5555
What is the most efficient way to do this? I'd rather not create a
separate query for each of the field types (there are more than 3 in my
actual situation).
Any help you can offer would be appreciated!

I have a legacy SQL 6.5 system where they have articles that they relate to multiple topics by using a column with comma seperated values example ArticleID: 1, Topics 3,5,8,9. Im trying to find a way to automate this in SSIS to create a cross ref table. Is there any transformation componets that can help me with this?

Hello,
I have a survey (30 questions) application in a SQL server db. The application uses several relational tables. The results are arranged so that each answer is on a seperate row:
user1 answer1user1 answer2user1 answer3user2 answer1user2 answer2user2 answer3
For statistical analysis I need to transfer the results to an Excel spreadsheet (for later use in SPSS). In the spreadsheet I need the results to appear so that each user will be on a single row with all of that user's answers on that single row (A column for each answer):
user1 answer1 answer2 answer3user2 answer1 answer2 answer3
How can this be done? How can all answers of a user appear on a single row
Thanx,Danny.

I managed to transpose rows into columns.
;WITH
ctePreAgg AS
(
select top 500 act_reference "ActivityRef",
row_number() over (partition by act_reference order by act_reference) as rowno,
t3.s_initials "Initials"
from mytablestuff
order by act_reference
[code]...
But what I would love to do next is take each of the above rows - and return the initials either in one column with all the nulls and duplicate values removed, separated by a comma ..
ref, initials
Ag-4xYS
Ag-6xYS,BL
Ap-1xKW
At-2x SAS,CW
At-3x SAS,CW
OR the above but using variable number of columns based on the maximum number of different initials for each row.this is not strictly required, but maybe neater for further work on the view
ref, init1,init2
Ag-4xYS
Ag-6xYS,BL
Ap-1xKW
At-2x SAS,CW
At-3x SAS,CW

I have a report which is a list of items and I display everything about the item. It is great. My report table in the layout tab is simple. Header,Detail,Footer. Each Item has 65 columns. The number of items (rows) vary upon what you want to see. Example data.
Item#, Description, CaseSalePrice, Cost, BottleSalePrice, Discount
123, Grenadine, 100.00, 75.00, 15.50, 2.00
456, Lime Juice, 120.00, 81.00, 17.25, 2.00
There could be 1 item or 4000 items.
What I want to see is.
Item # - 123, 456
Description - Grenadine, Lime Juice
CaseSalePrice - 100.00, 120.00
Cost - 75.00, 81.00
BottleSalePrice - 15.50, 17.25
Discount - 2.00, 2.00
What I am actually doing is running this the top example and saving to excel. Then copying the sheet. Creating a new sheet then doing a paste special transpose and this gives the users what they want to see.
I want to grab that table object in the report layout tab and twist it 90degrees so the header is on the left, detail is in the middle and the footer is on the right. It would be perfect.
The dynamic column need is really the problem here. I never know how many items will be in the report. They all have the same basic information like description and pricing.
I am all out of creative ideas, any help would be appreciated.

Hi SQL Champs!
I have a flat file source where some data are an question mark (?). Importing this to SQL serever, I want to exchange these (?) with an NULL -value.
How do I do this most easy in SSIS? Do I need a another tmptable first, and then derived?
Many thaks

Hi all, using transactional replication in SQL 05, I have a schema that is different at the subscriber and wanted to know the best approach for transforming the published data. For example, the subscriber is more normalized than the data being published causing 1 published record broken out into to many tables at the subscriber. Also need to applying scalar funtions to a few published columns before committing at subscriber.
I've read DTS, although backwards compatible, is being deprecated in a future release. I suppose I can use either SSIS or custom procedures. I didn't see any tie-in to SSIS in the system procedures to setup replication (only DTS). Any advice on which would work in this type of scenario?
Much appreciated, Pat

Hi,
I have read that the old method of using DTS to transform data during replication will not be supported in 2005.
In SQL Server 2005, is there a way to use an SSIS package to modify data you want to replicate?

I'm having a hard time trying to transform a date that comes in for import in this format: 2015-04-08T18:00:48.000Z to DT_DBTIMESTAMP, I get potential loss of data error. (I've tried other SSIS data types.)
I had never seen this type of date before so I'm at a loss.

I'd like to extend a package functionality.
I created it drag/drop way with hard-coded table names.
Now for the same source and destination connections I'd like somehow in a loop transform 20 source tables of the same structure to 20 destination tables of the same structure providing table names in a loop.
I also have in the package preparation SQL tasks such as dropping destination table if exists, and then re-creation , so it needs to consume a table name as parameter from my loop.
Is it doable ?

As part of xml parsing, I use multicast to direct output of nodes to their corresponding relational tables and I do have a comma-delimited list for some nodes which basically needs to be converted into rows as illustrated below
ID Products
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 12, 45
2 10, 20
and I would like to have results as
ID Products
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

hi,I'm building a multi-lingual website In my database tables I have, in some of them, a column with the Language, because some of the columns depend on what language the user wants to see the site.My question is: what is better? have that column and consequently two row (for two languages) with repeated column information? or have two column within a row with the language specification?e.g. table: id, description, price(1) With language:id,description, price, language='EX' id,description, price, language='EN' vs.(2) id, descriptionEN,descriptionEX,price if I have 500 products in 1 whould result in 1000 entriesin 2 just 500 results can anyone tell me a diference/advantage between the two approachs?thanks in advance.

I am using SQL 2008. I have a database called ISCmetrics and a table called Meeting, the table meeting has 5 columns id
( int),TEAMNAME (varchar),DATECOMPLETE (varchar),STATUSNAME (varchar),STATUSLEVEL (varchar)
We have around 20 different team names , and every team enters data into the database every day, and we have around 7 Different STATUSNAME they are always the same , the STATUSLEVEL is always a 1 or a 0 , so TEAMA enters a value every day for each of the 7 STATUSNAME, and the value is either a 1 or a 0 .
The output for a Select * from ISCMetricslooks like this
id TEAMNAME DATECOMPLETE STATUSNAME STATUSLEVEL
1 TeamA 20131022 STATCONTACT 1
2 TeamA 20131022 STATACTION 1
3 TeamA 20131022 STATABC 1
4 TeamB 20131022 STATCONTACT 1
5 TeamB 20131022 STATCTION 0
6 TeamB 20131022 STATABC 1
7 TeamA 20131021 STATCONTACT 0
8 TeamA 20131021 STATACTION 1
9 TeamA 20131021 STATABC 0
10 TeamB 20131021 STATCONTACT 1
11 TeamB 20131021 STATACTION 1
12 TeamB 20131021 STATABC 1
What i am trying to achieve is this, i want the teams in one column then a column for each of the dates , and then sum of the STATUSLEVEL in each row as shown below for the day and team .....
TEAMNAME 20131022 20131021
TeamA 3 1

Afternoon
I am trying to write a query that will return the columns: year/ month, each status type (unknown how many types there are)
Each row is a different join year/ month
Each cell has the count of users that joined in that rows year/ month and currently have the status of the column.
At the moment I have the following query:
SELECT [remortgage-status].status, COUNT(1) AS CountTotal, YEAR([remortgage-log].datetime) AS Year, MONTH([remortgage-log].datetime) AS month FROM [remortgage-status] INNER JOIN [remortgage-log] ON [remortgage-status].clientid = [remortgage-log].clientid WHERE ([remortgage-log].action = N'Joined') GROUP BY [remortgage-status].status, YEAR([remortgage-log].datetime), MONTH([remortgage-log].datetime)
The problem is that each different status is a new row rather than each status being a column.
What do I need to do to correct this? - I dont know all the different possible statuses at this point

2,35.00,65.00,250.00
What would be the best way to do this...
ID, Description, Value
1, Net, 25.00
1, Gross,55.00
1, Total, 100,00
2, Net 35,00
I was using the multicast and doing a bunch of derived columns but it seems like there should be a eaiser way to do this.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I have a large amount of data in an XML file. The file is very simple. Off of the root node are category nodes and each category node has many detail nodes. The detail node consist of the node name and the node value. Rather than map the detail to matching named fields in a single record, I would like to send the detail node data to individual data records where the category code, node name and node value are the only fields in the record. For example,
Starting with
<Category>
<Code>001</Code
<Details>
<DetailCode123>75.87</DetailCode123>
<DetailCode728>12.98</DetailCode728>
<DetailCode387>55.72</DetailCode387>
</Details>
</Category>
I want to be able to pick up the 001 code for the category and then transform the above data into 3 separate table records with the following fields (CatCode, DetailCodeName, DetailValue).
001, DetailCode123, 75.84
001, DetailCode728, 12.98
001, DetailCode387, 5572
Does this sort of transform exist? If not, I will have generate my own parsing script. Thought it was worth asking before doing the additional work.
Thanks

I am converting rows into columns :
Schedule_S1 contains more than 1 rows with different FROM_DATE and TO_DATE
The query should merge 2 rows into 1 row with 2 different FROM_DATE AND TO_DATE
The following query works fine when there are more than 1 records. When there is only 1 record, it should still return the record (with FROM_DATE_2 and TO_DATE_2 as nulls). Thanks for any help.
SELECT
ml1.P_ID,
ml1.S_ID,
ml1.CURRENT_DAY,
ml1.FROM_DATE AS "FROM_DATE_1",

Hi
I have 2 tables defined as follows:
Table1 = uid, Field1, Field2, Field3 ... Fieldn, FormUID
Table2 = FormUID, Label, Position
When I query Table1 I would like to replace the column name of Field1...Fieldn with the Label from Table2 where the Position = n value of Field lable
e.g. lets say Table2 contains the following
1, customerName, 1
1, customerTitle, 2
1, customerDOB, 3
and Table1 might contain
1, Paul Jones, Mr, 21/09/1987, 1
when I query Table1 I would get
uid = 1, Field1 = Paul Jones, Field2 = Mr, Field3 = 21/09/1987
what I would like to get is
uid = 1, customerName = Paul Jones, customerTitle = Mr, customerDOB = 21/09/1987
I have up to 20 Fieldn columns so need to do this for all columns even if there is no matching columns.
any help would be great

I have a table with three columns:
AcctNbr, Type, CodeValue
Listed below is an example of the database.
Code:
AcctNbr Type CodeValue
1 MAILCODE 99
2 MAILCODE 99
3 MAILCODE 99
4 MAILCODE 90
4 MAILCODE 99
4 SEG1 O
5 MAILCODE 99
6 MAILCODE 99
7 MAILCODE 99
8 MAILCODE 99
9 MAILCODE 99
10 MAILCODE 90
11 MAILCODE 99
12 MAILCODE 99
13 MAILCODE 99
14 MAILCODE 99
15 LIST DS1
15 MAILCODE 99
There are multiple Type's for some AcctNbr's and what I want to do is
run a query on the database so that if the AcctNbr has multiple Type's
and CodesValue's it takes them and creates new columns like so:
Code:
AcctNbr MailCode_90 MailCode_99 SEG1
4 90 99 O
So on and so forth. There are multiple Type's and multiple codes that
I need to do this with for each account number. If someone could give
me a base code to try I could start somewhere. I am an SQL novice.
Thanks.
